Now that the pack-bitmap machinery has learned how to read and interact
with an incremental MIDX bitmap, teach the pack-bitmap-write.c machinery
(and relevant callers from within the MIDX machinery) to write such
bitmaps.
The details for doing so are mostly straightforward. The main changes
are as follows:
- find_object_pos() now makes use of an extra MIDX parameter which is
used to locate the bit positions of objects which are from previous
layers (and thus do not exist in the current layer's pack_order
field).
(Note also that the pack_order field is moved into struct
write_midx_context to further simplify the callers for
write_midx_bitmap()).
- bitmap_writer_build_type_index() first determines how many objects
precede the current bitmap layer and offsets the bits it sets in
each respective type-level bitmap by that amount so they can be OR'd
together.

The previous commit changed the behavior of repack's '--max-cruft-size'
to specify a cruft pack-specific override for '--max-pack-size'.
Introduce a new flag, '--combine-cruft-below-size' which is a
replacement for the old behavior of '--max-cruft-size'. This new flag
does explicitly what it says: it combines together cruft packs which are
smaller than a given threshold, and leaves alone ones which are
larger.
This accomplishes the original intent of '--max-cruft-size', which was
to avoid repacking cruft packs larger than the given threshold.
The new behavior is slightly different. Instead of building up small
packs together until the threshold is met, '--combine-cruft-below-size'
packs up *all* cruft packs smaller than the threshold. This means that
we may make a pack much larger than the given threshold (e.g., if you
aggregate 5 packs which are each 99 MiB in size with a threshold of 100
MiB).
But that's OK: the point isn't to restrict the size of the cruft packs
we generate, it's to avoid working with ones that have already grown too
large. If repositories still want to limit the size of the generated
cruft pack(s), they may use '--max-cruft-size'.
There's some minor test fallout as a result of the slight differences in
behavior between the old meaning of '--max-cruft-size' and the behavior
of '--combine-cruft-below-size'. In the test which is now called
"--combine-cruft-below-size combines packs", we need to use the new flag
over the old one to exercise that test's intended behavior. The
remainder of the changes there are to improve the clarity of the
comments.

In 37dc6d8104 (builtin/repack.c: implement support for
`--max-cruft-size`, 2023-10-02), we exposed new functionality that
allowed repositories to specify the behavior of when we should combine
multiple cruft packs together.
This feature was designed to ensure that we never repacked cruft packs
which were larger than the given threshold in order to provide tighter
I/O bounds for repositories that have many unreachable objects. In
essence, specifying '--max-cruft-size=N' instructed 'repack' to
aggregate cruft packs together (in order of ascending size) until the
combine size grows past 'N', and then make a new cruft pack whose
contents includes the packs we rolled up.
But this isn't quite how it works in practice. Suppose for example that
we have two cruft packs which are each 100MiB in size. One might expect
specifying "--max-cruft-size=200M" would combine these two packs
together, and then avoid repacking them until a pruning GC takes place.
In reality, 'repack' would try and aggregate these together, but writing
a pack that is strictly smaller than 200 MiB (since pack-objects'
"--max-pack-size" provides a strict bound for packs containing more than
one object).
So instead we'll write out a pack that is, say, 199 MiB in size, and
then another 1 MiB pack containing the balance. If we later repack the
repository without adding any new unreachable objects, we'll repeat the
same exercise again, making the same 199 MiB and 1 MiB packs each time.
This happens because of a poor choice to bolt the '--max-cruft-size'
functionality onto pack-objects' '--max-pack-size', forcing us to
generate packs which are always smaller than the provided threshold and
thus subject to repacking.
The following commit will introduce a new flag that implements something
similar to the behavior above. Let's prepare for that by making repack's
'--max-cruft-size' flag behave as an cruft pack-specific override for
'--max-pack-size'.
Do so by temporarily repurposing the 'collapse_small_cruft_packs()'
function to instead generate a cruft pack using the same instructions as
if we didn't specify any maximum pack size. The calling code looks
something like:
if (args->max_pack_size && !cruft_expiration) {
collapse_small_cruft_packs(in, args->max_pack_size, existing);
} else {
for_each_string_list_item(item, &existing->non_kept_packs)
fprintf(in, "-%s.pack\n", item->string);
for_each_string_list_item(item, &existing->cruft_packs)
fprintf(in, "-%s.pack\n", item->string);
}
This patch makes collapse_small_cruft_packs() behave identically to the
'else' arm of the conditional above. This repurposing of
'collapse_small_cruft_packs()' is intentional, since it will set us up
nicely to introduce the new behavior in the following commit.
Naturally, there is some test fallout in the test which exercises the
old meaning of '--max-cruft-size'. Mark that test as failing for now to
be dealt with in the following commit. Likewise, add a new test which
explicitly tests the behavior of '--max-cruft-size' to place a hard
limit on the size of any generated cruft pack(s).
Note that this is a breaking change, as it alters the user-visible
behavior of '--max-cruft-size'. But I'm OK changing this behavior in
this instance, since the behavior wasn't accurate to begin with.

Incidentally, the original home of this test defined its own helper
"write_blob" for doing so, which is identical in function to our
"generate_random_blob" (and is slightly inferior to the latter, which
cleans up after itself).

Now that a number of new tests have landed in t7704, make sure that they
all make sense and are testing the things they say they are.
Things are mostly OK, but a handful of tests needed tweaks. Those tweaks
are as follows:
- Use the terms "too large" or "too small" in tests that exercise the
'--max-cruft-size' behavior. This has historically been treated as a
threshold beneath which to combine cruft packs, but that will change
in a subsequent commit. Prepare for that by using a more generic
term.
- Remove references to "--max-cruft-size" in the freshening tests.
These tests provide coverage of our ability to record updated mtimes
for objects already in cruft packs whose mtimes are upserted from
various sources (loose objects, finding that object in a new pack,
another cruft pack, etc.).
These have nothing to do with the '--max-cruft-size' feature, and in
fact none of the tests even *use* '--max-cruft-size'. Name them
appropriately to make it clear that these tests exercise freshening
behavior, not '--max-cruft-size' behavior.

The cruft pack feature has two primary test scripts which exercise
various parts of it, which are:
- t5329-pack-objects-cruft.sh
- t7704-repack-cruft.sh
The former is designed to test low-level pack generation mechanics at
the 'git pack-objects --cruft'-level, which is plumbing. The latter, on
the other hand, is designed to test the user-facing behavior through
'git repack --cruft', which is porcelain (under the "ancillary
manipulators" sub-section).
At some point a handful of tests which should have been added to the
latter script were instead written to the former. This isn't a huge
deal, but rectifying it is straightforward. Move a handful of
'repack'-related tests out of t5329 and into their rightful home in

Using strvec_push() to push `NULL` into a 'strvec' results in a
segfault, because `xstrdup(NULL)` crashes.
So when an URL is missing from the config, let's not push the remote
name and URL into the 'strvec's.
While at it, let's also not push them in case the URL is empty. It's
just not worth the trouble and it's consistent with how Git otherwise
treats missing and empty URLs in the same way.
Note that in case of missing or empty URL, Git uses the remote name to
fetch, which can work if the remote is on the same filesystem. So
configurations where the client, server and remote are all on the same
filesystem may need URLs to be configured even if they are the same as
the remote names. But this is a rare case, and the work around is easy
enough.
We leave improving the strvec API and/or xstrdup() for a future
separate effort.
While at it, let's also use git_config_get_string_tmp() instead of
git_config_get_string() to simplify memory management.

Switch from merge-recursive to merge-ort. Adjust the following
testcases due to the switch:
* t4151: This test left an untracked file in the way of the merge.
merge-recursive could only sometimes tell when untracked files were
in the way, and by the time it discovers others, it has already made
too many changes to back out of the merge. So, instead of writing the
results to e.g. 'file1' it would instead write them to
'file1~branch1'. This is confusing for users, because they might not
notice 'file1~branch1' and accidentally add and commit 'file1'.
In contrast, merge-ort correctly notices the file in the way before
making any changes and aborts. Since this test didn't care about the
file in the way, just remove it before calling git-am.
* t4255: Usage of merge-ort allows us to change two known failures into
successes.
* t6427: As noted a few commits ago, the choice of conflict label for
diff3 markers for the ancestor commit was previously handled by
merge-recursive.c rather than by callers. Since that has now changed,
`git am` needs to specify that label. Although the previous conflict
label ("constructed merge base") was already fairly somewhat slanted
towards `git am`, let's use wording more along the lines of the
related command-line flag from `git apply` and function involved to
tie it more closely to `git am`.

There are two issues here.
First, when merge.directoryRenames is set to false, there are a few code
paths that should be turned off. I missed one; collect_renames() was
still doing some directory rename detection logic unconditionally. It
ended up not having much effect because
get_provisional_directory_renames() was skipped earlier and not setting
up renames->dir_renames, but the code should still be skipped.
Second, the larger issue is that sometimes we get a cached_pair rename
from a previous commit being replayed mapping A->B, but in a subsequent
commit but collect_merge_info() doesn't even recurse into the
directory containing B because there are no source pairings for that
rename that are relevant; we can merge that commit fine without knowing
the rename. But since the cached renames are added to the normal
renames, when we go to process it and find that B is not part of
opt->priv->paths, we hit the assertion error
process_renames: Assertion `newinfo && ~newinfo->merged.clean` failed.
I think we could fix this at the beginning of detect_regular_renames() by
pruning from cached_pairs any entry whose destination isn't in
opt->priv->paths, but it's suboptimal in that we'd kind of like the
cached_pair to be restored afterwards so that it can help the subsequent
commit, but more importantly since it sits at the intersection of
the caching renames optimization and the relevant renames optimization,
and the trivial directory resolution optimization, and I don't currently
have Documentation/technical/remembering-renames.txt fully paged in, I'm
not sure if that's a full solution or a bandaid for the current
testcase. However, since the remembering renames optimization was the
weakest of the set, and the optimization is far less important when
directory rename detection is off (as that implies far fewer potential
renames), let's just use a bigger hammer to ensure this special case is
fixed: turn off the rename caching. We do the same thing already when
we encounter rename/rename(1to1) cases (as per `git grep -3
disabling.the.optimization`, though it uses a slightly different
triggering mechanism since it's trying to affect the next time that
merge_check_renames_reusable() is called), and I think it makes sense
to do the same here.

There is a bug in the way renames are cached that rears its head when
`merge.directoryRenames` is set to false; it results in the following
message:
merge-ort.c:3002: process_renames: Assertion `newinfo && !newinfo->merged.clean' failed.
Aborted
It is quite a curious bug: the same test case will succeed, without any
assertion, if instead run with `merge.directoryRenames=true`.
Further, the assertion does not manifest while replaying the first
commit, it manifests while replaying the _second_ commit of the commit
range. But it does _not_ manifest when the second commit is replayed
individually.
This would indicate that there is an incomplete rename cache left-over
from the first replayed commit which is being reused for the second
commit, and if directory rename detection is enabled, the missing paths
are somehow regenerated.
Incidentally, the same bug can by triggered by modifying t6429 to switch

When merge-ort was written, I did not at first allow rename detection to
be disabled, because I suspected that most folks disabling rename
detection were doing so solely for performance reasons. Since I put a
lot of working into providing dramatic speedups for rename detection
performance as used by the merge machinery, I wanted to know if there
were still real world repositories where rename detection was
problematic from a performance perspective. We have had years now to
collect such information, and while we never received one, waiting
longer with the option disabled seems unlikely to help surface such
issues at this point. Also, there has been at least one request to
allow rename detection to be disabled for behavioral rather than
performance reasons (see the thread including

t7615 is entirely about testing the differences about different
diff algorithms, but it doesn't specify any diff algorithm when it
is testing myers. Given that we have discussed potentially switching
defaults (https://lore.kernel.org/git/xmqqed873vgn.fsf@gitster.g/), it
makes sense in tests that are about different diff algorithms to be
explicitly about which one is intended to be used in each test. Add
that specificity.

Prior to commit 9db2ac5616 (diffcore-rename: accelerate rename_dst
setup, 2020-12-11), the function add_rename_dst() resulted in quadratic
runtime since each call inserted the new entry into the array in sorted
order. The reason for the sorted order requirement was so that
locate_rename_dst(), used when break detection is turned on, could find
the appropriate entry in logarithmic time via bisection on string
comparisons. (It's better to be quadratic in moving pointers than
quadratic in string comparisons, so this made some sense.) However,
since break detection always sticks the broken pairs adjacent to each
other, that commit decided to simply append entries to rename_dst, and
record the mapping of (filename) -> (index within rename_dst) via a
strintmap. Doing this relied on the fact that when adding the source of
a broken pair via register_rename_src(), that the next item we'd process
was the other half of the same broken pair and would be added to
rename_dst via add_rename_dst(). This assumption was fine under break
detection alone, but the combination of break detection and
single_follow violated that assumption because of this code:
else if (options->single_follow &&
strcmp(options->single_follow, p->two->path))
continue; /* not interested */
which would end up skipping calling add_rename_dst() below that point.
Since I knew I was assuming that the dst pair of a break would always be
added right after the src pair of a break, I added a new BUG() directive
as part of that commit later on at time of use that would check my
assumptions held. That BUG() didn't trip for nearly 4 years...which
sadly meant I had long since forgotten the related details. Anyway...
When the dst half of a broken pair is skipped like this, it means that
not only could my recorded index be invalid (just past the end of the
array), it could also point to some unrelated dst that just happened to
be the next one added to the array. So, to fix this, we need to add a
little more safety around the checks for the recorded break_idx.
It turns out that making a testcase to trigger this is quite the
challenge. I actually added two testscases:
* One testcase which uses --follow incorrectly (it uses its single
pathspec to specifying something other than a single filename), and
which triggers the same bug reported-by Olaf. This triggers a
special case within locate_rename_dst() where idx evaluates to 0
and rename_dst is NULL, meaning that our return value of
&rename_dst[idx] happens to evaluate to NULL as well. This
addressing of an index into a NULL array hints at deeper problems,
which are raised in the next testcase...
* A second testcase which when run under valgrind shows that the code
actually depends upon unintialized memory, in particular the entry
just after the end of the rename_dst array.
In short, when the two rare options -B and --follow are used together,
fix the accidental find of the wrong dst entry (which would often be
uninitialized memory just past the end of the array, but also could
have just been a dst for an unrelated path if no dst was recorded for
the expected path). Do so by adding a little more care around checking
the recorded indices in break_idx.

xdl_get_hunk() calculates the maximum number of common lines between two
changes that would fit into the same hunk for the given context options.
It involves doubling and addition and thus can overflow if the terms are
huge.
The type of ctxlen and interhunkctxlen in xdemitconf_t is long, while
the type of the corresponding context and interhunkcontext in struct
diff_options is int. On many platforms longs are bigger that ints,
which prevents the overflow. On Windows they have the same range and
the overflow manifests as hunks that are split erroneously and lines
being repeated between them.
Fix the overflow by checking and not going beyond LONG_MAX. This allows
specifying a huge context line count and getting all lines of a changed
files in a single hunk, as expected.

Once an object is written into a cruft pack, we can only freshen it by
writing a new loose or packed copy of that object with a more recent
mtime.
Prior to 61568efa95 (builtin/pack-objects.c: support `--max-pack-size`
with `--cruft`, 2023-08-28), we typically had at most one cruft pack in
a repository at any given time. So freshening unreachable objects was
straightforward when already rewriting the cruft pack (and its *.mtimes
file).
But 61568efa95 changes things: 'pack-objects' now supports writing
multiple cruft packs when invoked with `--cruft` and the
`--max-pack-size` flag. Cruft packs are rewritten until they reach some
size threshold, at which point they are considered "frozen", and will
only be modified in a pruning GC, or if the threshold itself is
adjusted.
Prior to this patch, however, this process breaks down when we attempt
to freshen an object packed in an earlier cruft pack, and that cruft
pack is larger than the threshold and thus will survive the repack.
When this is the case, it is impossible to freshen objects in cruft
pack(s) when those cruft packs are larger than the threshold. This is
because we would avoid writing them in the new cruft pack entirely, for
a couple of reasons.
1. When enumerating packed objects via 'add_objects_in_unpacked_packs()'
we pass the SKIP_IN_CORE_KEPT_PACKS, which is used to avoid looping
over the packs we're going to retain (which are marked as kept
in-core by 'read_cruft_objects()').
This means that we will avoid enumerating additional packed copies
of objects found in any cruft packs which are larger than the given
size threshold. Thus there is no opportunity to call
'create_object_entry()' whatsoever.
2. We likewise will discard the loose copy (if one exists) of any
unreachable object packed in a cruft pack that is larger than the
threshold. Here our call path is 'add_unreachable_loose_objects()',
which uses the 'add_loose_object()' callback.
That function will eventually land us in 'want_object_in_pack()'
(via 'add_cruft_object_entry()'), and we'll discard the object as it
appears in one of the packs which we marked as kept in-core.
This means in effect that it is impossible to freshen an unreachable
object once it appears in a cruft pack larger than the given threshold.
Instead, we should pack an additional copy of an unreachable object we
want to freshen even if it appears in a cruft pack, provided that the
cruft copy has an mtime which is before the mtime of the copy we are
trying to pack/freshen. This is sub-optimal in the sense that it
requires keeping an additional copy of unreachable objects upon
freshening, but we don't have a better alternative without the ability
to make in-place modifications to existing *.mtimes files.
In order to implement this, we have to adjust the behavior of
'want_found_object()'. When 'pack-objects' is told that we're *not*
going to retain any cruft packs (i.e. the set of packs marked as kept
in-core does not contain a cruft pack), the behavior is unchanged.
But when there *is* at least one cruft pack that we're holding onto, it
is no longer sufficient to reject a copy of an object found in that
cruft pack for that reason alone. In this case, we only want to reject a
candidate object when copies of that object either:
- exists in a non-cruft pack that we are retaining, regardless of that
pack's mtime, or
- exists in a cruft pack with an mtime at least as recent as the copy
we are debating whether or not to pack, in which case freshening
would be redundant.
To do this, keep track of whether or not we have any cruft packs in our
in-core kept list with a new 'ignore_packed_keep_in_core_has_cruft'
flag. When we end up in this new special case, we replace a call to
'has_object_kept_pack()' to 'want_cruft_object_mtime()', and only reject
objects when we have a copy in an existing cruft pack with at least as
recent an mtime as our candidate (in which case "freshening" would be
redundant).

"git version --build-options" stopped showing zlib version by

The ref and reflog iterators have their lifecycle attached to iteration:
once the iterator reaches its end, it is automatically released and the
caller doesn't have to care about that anymore. When the iterator should
be released before it has been exhausted, callers must explicitly abort
the iterator via `ref_iterator_abort()`.
This lifecycle is somewhat unusual in the Git codebase and creates two
problems:
- Callsites need to be very careful about when exactly they call
`ref_iterator_abort()`, as calling the function is only valid when
the iterator itself still is. This leads to somewhat awkward calling
patterns in some situations.
- It is impossible to reuse iterators and re-seek them to a different
prefix. This feature isn't supported by any iterator implementation
except for the reftable iterators anyway, but if it was implemented
it would allow us to optimize cases where we need to search for
specific references repeatedly by reusing internal state.
Detangle the lifecycle from iteration so that we don't deallocate the
iterator anymore once it is exhausted. Instead, callers are now expected
to always call a newly introduce `ref_iterator_free()` function that
deallocates the iterator and its internal state.
Note that the `dir_iterator` is somewhat special because it does not
implement the `ref_iterator` interface, but is only used to implement
other iterators. Consequently, we have to provide `dir_iterator_free()`
instead of `dir_iterator_release()` as the allocated structure itself is
managed by the `dir_iterator` interfaces, as well, and not freed by
`ref_iterator_free()` like in all the other cases.
While at it, drop the return value of `ref_iterator_abort()`, which
wasn't really required by any of the iterator implementations anyway.
Furthermore, stop calling `base_ref_iterator_free()` in any of the
backends, but instead call it in `ref_iterator_free()`.
